Tell the President: No Deal That Cuts Benefits

Republicans are demanding that the price of any deal is cruel cuts to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid benefits.

They are holding the most vulnerable people in America hostage for any agreement to go forward. There are two words to say to that: No Deal.

Use the form below to tell President Obama: No deal that cuts Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid. No deal that keeps low tax rates for the rich. No deal that kills jobs with more cuts.

Petition to President Obama:

We the undersigned urge you, President Obama, to reject any deficit reduction agreement that cuts Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid benefits. Please stand firm for a deal that ends the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans; allows us to invest in jobs, education and infrastructure to grow the economy; and protects the safety net, including Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.
